A/N: I am soooooo sorry I've not updated this story in a long time. Had lots to do, moving house, graduating University, getting a full-time job yadda yadda. Anyway, here is the next part of the story I know you've been dying for.

Back with the Goa'uld, Vor'tesh has risen from his Sarcophagus to find Ba'al waiting for him.

"My Lord, I trust you are amply rested?" Ba'al said.

"Three days in the Sarcophagus has made me strong again. Have you taken care of my requests?" Vor'tesh asked.

"I have appropriate attire awaiting you in your chambers and my finest Motherships on standby, awaiting your command, My Lord." Ba'al said.

"Excellent. You serve me well. Allow me time to search the database for an appropriate planet to conquer as a small demonstration of my power." Vor'tesh said.

"Then might I suggest an attack on the Tau'ri and the Asgard?" Ba'al said.

"The Asgard must be handled gently and carefully. A direct assault will most likely result in our doom. Besides, they will no doubt be aware of the situation and will have taken extra security measures to prevent that from happening." Vor'tesh said. "As for the Tau'ri, it's not time for them yet. I want to make them suffer slowly."

"As you wish, my Lord." Ba'al said.

"Ready the database in my chambers." Vor'tesh said as he walked away.

"As you wish, My Lord." Ba'al said submissively.

Back at the SGC, Sam was finally resting in her quarters, but it was a restless sleep. She was tossing and turning. She didn't know that Teal'c was watching over her.

"No….He can't be Goa'uld…I won't let you kill him…we can still save him….NOOO!" Sam screamed as she shot up. She was panting wildly and sweating from terror.

"Did you have a nightmare, Major Carter?" Teal'c said.

"Oh mi god, Teal'c. It was horrible." Sam said.

"Allow yourself time to relax, then it might make you feel better if you were to discuss it." Teal'c said.

"I was reliving what was happening the day he was made a Goa'uld. I was then dreaming about the inevitable confrontation where we would be putting Hammond's shoot to kill objective into action. I saw him vulnerable and you were going to kill him. He turned to me, said he loved me, and then you shot and killed him. That's when I woke up." Sam said.

"I understand how that would be disturbing for you." Teal'c said.

"I don't know what to think, Teal'c. If I think there's a way to get him back, then I'm happy, but then I'm shot down with the reality that the chances of getting him back alive and well are slim to none. I can't stand the thought of him staying with them. It'll be dangerous for all of us. I'm in a slump because I can't think of a way to save him." Sam said.

"I too am having difficulty thinking of a solution as well. But you must not give up hope. You must also rest." Teal'c said.

"I guess so." Sam said. She then looked over at Teal'c. "What do you think of all this?"

"I am having difficulty coming to terms with the fact that one of my greatest friends and comrades, a man I have great respect for, is now one of our most dangerous enemies and I too am failing to see the possibility of getting him back alive and well." Teal's said.

"Everyone's saying that any attempts to save him and get him back will result in more casualties and is not worth the risk. The chances of failure are greater than those of success. That it's suicide. Do you think it's worth the risk?" Sam said.

"I believe so. Colonel O'Neill has proven on numerous occasions that he is willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to save but one individual. It is only fair that we do the same for him and there are many who think the same thing. The question is, do you think the risk is worth taking?" Teal'c said. Sam thought hard for a minute before finally answering.

"Yes, I think it is." Sam said.

"And there are many others who believe the same thing." Teal'c said.

"Thanks for that Teal'c." Sam said. Teal'c stood up and bowed to her before leaving. Sam lay back. "Come on Jack, help me find away to save you. Give me something." She said aloud. She then drifted back off to sleep, only to find herself in a Goa'uld chamber. "Where am I?"

"Where am I?" A voice said. Sam looked around.

"Jack, is that you?" Sam said. Jack stepped out in his military BDU'S.

"In the flesh, so to speak." Jack said.

"What's going on? Where are we?" Sam asked.

"Well, I'm in a Goa'uld Sarcophagus right now. Vor'tesh feels the need to increase his strength before he demonstrates the kind of sway and power he has over the Goa'uld." Jack said.

"You're in a Sarcophagus? Am I dreaming this?" Sam asked.

"No, I don't know exactly how it works, or how I'm doing this, but what I do know is that I wanted to reach out to someone, you, and here we are." Jack said.

"What about Vor'tesh?" Sam said.

"He's concentrating on increasing his strength, so he doesn't know I'm doing this, but I won't be able to do this again." Jack said.

"So what can we do?" Sam said.

"I'm as good as dead. Any attempt to save me will result in failure, casualties even, at my hand. I can't bare to be responsible if anything happens to you." Jack said.

"Hammond has ordered Directive 001 on you." Sam said.

"Shoot to kill, I can understand why. All of my experience and knowledge is now in the hands of the Goa'uld. They know everything about us. I'm dangerous." Jack said.

"It's not you. You're not in control of what Vor'tesh does." Sam said.

"That won't make me feel better as Vor'tesh destroys everything I care about and I can't do a thing to stop him. I know that he's going to make you suffer; torture you to death to make me suffer. Inside, it'll be killing me, but the last thing you'll see is a malicious grin on my face that's not me. I can't deal with that." Jack said.

"Jack, I can't standby and leave you with them. I can come up with a plan to save you. Please Jack, let me try." Sam said.

"But I can't bare for anything to happen to you." Jack said. "Why are you so determined?"

"Because I love you. For a few hours, you were mine and I had what I had wanted for 7 years and I'll be damned if I'm going to let them take you away from me." Sam said, tears filling her eyes. Tears were filling Jack's eyes.

"Sam, I love you too, which is why I couldn't bare to let anything happen to you, especially if I was the one hurting you. Sam, you have no idea of how much I've wanted to propose to you and to make you my wife. To hell with the regulations." Jack said.

"Then let me save you, and when I do, I'm yours. I'll help you through this, just let me save you." Sam pleaded. She was crying now. Jack pulled her into a hug. She buried her head into his shoulder.

"I realise I can't talk you out of this, so do what you have to. But, if it comes down to it, kill me without hesitation, before I have a chance to kill you." Jack said.

"Don't make me promise that, Jack. I will save you and when I do, I'm yours, to hell with the regulations. I'm never going to let you go. Trust me I will save you." Sam said.

"Remember, Teamwork is the key." Jack said.

"I love you Jack." Sam said.

"I will always love you." Jack said. He kissed her gently before it turned into something passionate and full of love. They broke away and Jack wiped away Sam's tears. He cupped her face with his hands and brought her forehead to his. "Make me proud." Then Sam shot up. She was in her bed. She touched her lips, which felt like they had just been kissed and then her face, which was wet from crying. It wasn't a dream.

"Teamwork is the key? Teamwork is the key?" She said aloud. She went to her desk and began brainstorming. She was going to save him…even if it killed her.

Please, Please read and review. Don't hold the fact that I took so long to submit another chapter against me.
